STHANNEL WING © (VER EDERLE (Continued From Page One) starting point, she noticed that she had donned her skirt wrong-side-out. Asked by her chaperone, Miss Viets, if she cared to return to her room ‘and set it right, she replied: “I wouldn't like to change it now. I feel it will bring me good luck.” ‘The scene about the tug was like that attending the departure of an ocean liner. There were fully 100 persons, including officials, corres- pondents, cameramen, friends and swell wishers, An soon a8 Miss Ederle stepped aboard, the captain gave the word to cast off, and LaMarinie glided out of the harbor bound for the cape. The channel from this point to Dover {s roughly 20 miles in width, Its shifting tides and icy curre.its have baffled every woman swimmer jn the past and few men have been able to conquer it. The record crossing Was made in August, 1923, by the Argentine, Sebastian Tira- bocehi, {n 16 hours, 23 minutes, ‘As Miss Ederle stepped aboard the tug a cheer went up. She immed- jately went to the engine room, where her body was coated thickly with layers of grease, to protect her from the cold of the water. This operation was performed by Mile Sion, the French swimmer; Miss Tan- ner, Miss Viets, and Jabez Wolfe, the coach and trainer. Miss Ederle {s unaccustomed to such a» heavy coating as was applied and she remarked: “T don't like this sticky stuff." She entered the water from the cape, jumping fn like a school girl on a holfday swim. The American flag was hauled up the mast of the tug and Miss Ederle struck out, amid great cheering, at a beat of 27 strokes to the minute, in her superb trudgeon sty “Well we are off,” she called to the passengers as she caught up with the craft about 500 yards off the cape. One of those on the tug cheering her along was Miss Lillian Harrl- son, the Argentine swimmer, who recently failed in her fourth channel attempt. ALL RECORDS FOR SI HUORS BROKEN Aboard Tug La. Marinle, accom: panying Gertrude Ederle, Aug. 18.— At 1:30 o'clock this afternoon Ger- trude Ederle had covered half the distance between her starting point ai Cape Gris Nez and her goal at Dover. She was swimming with great regularity. . “She is the most marvelops swim- mer I ever saw,” T. W. Burgess, the veteran channel swimmer aboard the tug told the Associated Press correspondent. The endurance of the young Amer- ican girl was regarded by those ac: coinpanying her on the tug as equalled only by her great speed. It the first five hours, Miss Ederle broke all records for the distance made in that time by channel swim- mers. During the sixth hour het pace slowed down as the influence of the tide began to be felt and she vas compelled to breast the tide rather than to swim with it. She had been accompanied at various times in the water by Miss Lillian Harrison, the Argentine swimmer ana others, When Miss Ederle left Cape Griz- Nez the sea was almost dead calm, but it became a little rougher after she had been in the water a few hours. She called continually for music from the band aboard the tug, which played almost unceasing- ly. we low haze hung over the water all morting. The visibility was poor, it being possible to see only a few miles, ‘The last half of Miss Ederle’s swim will be the most difficult, as at three o'clock an adverse tide sets in. After that time it will tend to force her to the. west, past Folkestone and Dungeness on the English coast. Captain Vidal of the accompanying tug, said that. Miss Ederle, in her first six hours, broke all records for that time. “She is now ten miles right off Cape Gris-Nez,, he said at the end of the sixth hour. . She was still swimming as strong- ly as when she left France, but kept continually calling for music, swim- ming in time to the band’s rythm. The tide was making progress slow- er, pushing the swimmer toward the North Sea, but she continued to edge toward the English coast. Burgess, who has been assisting Jabez Wolfe in training Miss Ederle, and Wolfe both believed she would succeed when the half way mark was reached. ‘She will do it and in record time,” the two veterans of the channel agreed. TRAINER CALLS FOR HALT I AST PACE ABOARD THE TUG LA MAR- INIE, ACCOMPANYING GERT- RUDE EDERLE, Aug. 18—(By The Associated Press)—Miss Gertrude Ederle, the 18-year-old New York mermaid, began her attempt to swim the English Channel at 2 o'clock this morning when she entered the water from a huge rock below the cliffs of Cape Gris Nez in the most beautiful weather and the most per- fect ‘condition that any channel swimmer ever enjoyed. Miss Ederle appeared to be some- what, nervous at the start and sald sharply to Jabez Wolfe, her trainer, who wanted her to wait a few min- utes, “let's be off." For the first few hundred yards she struck off with o trudgeon style and half crowl motion at such tre- mendous speed that Wolfe was com- pelled to tell her to slow up “This is not a fifteen hundred meter race, Miss Hderle,” he said, Miss Ederle, after a start at 27 strokes to the minute, steadied her pace down to 24 or 25 strokes a minute, making great headway. “Old Bill” Burgess, the veteran who accomplished the channel cross- ing in 1911, sald after he had watched Miss Ederle for half an hour: “I never saw any swimmer, man or woman, attempting to swim the channel, get off from the French shore so fast."’ Just as Miss Ederle came abreast of the tig La Marinie about half a milie off Cape Gris Nez, the jazz aati deen ae SONS Sich Dire selbaind enone SDAY, AUGUST 18, 1925 of a short lifetime filled with long Jones has profitea noth and financially by the journey and Gov.

The swim- mer looked up and smiled and shout- ed: G) anas' me ‘Yes, We Have No Ban- After her first hour in the water Miss Ederle reverted to the breast stroke to rest from her trudgeon style. Her motion was graceful and eas: The American girl after an hour and a half in the. water had covered four miles in actual distance swum and was three miles off the French coast, Her style called forth the ad- miration of all the experts aboard the tug which was convoying her. From time to time she reverted to the breast stroke for a space of about. 200. meters, but it was with a combination of the trudgeon and crawl that she continued to eat up POLLY AND HER PA\ iF HE'S IA HIS USUAL FoRM \HE WILL, OLD ‘Fs on een A cose he ON pede Aa Least ligt + wet en ptt say, IM qi eency oad en (ale my companions regarding my poor physicial condition,” said Jones this morning. “I determined that I would do something which would win for me the status among. my associates which I desired.

I had $16.52 when I arrived at my sisters home in Texas, July 18, and I had ridden in only 520 cars. I had seen considerable country and had called on several celebrities including Lu- ther Burbank, Jones must be home in September to re-enter high school where he is a sophomore. He expects to make. the rest of his journey in the scheduled time and meanwhile to go through Yellowstone National park and call on the governors of-Utah, Nevada the channel miles. At 10 o'clock Miss Ederle shouted “send some one in with me. I'm get- ting lonesome.” Miss Vera Tanner, a member of last year’s British Olympic swimming team, slipped into the water and swam alongside the American girl. The two girls kept up a running chatter for a few minutes and then settled fown to a fast pace, The stroke reached 27 to the minute. Miss Ederle complained of slight stomach trouble after she had been two and a half hours in the water. “I can feel that beef stew yet," she said, referring to her morning's breakfast. Just then the Hner Cape Polonio bound from Buenos Aires to Bre: men, passed, raising large rollers in which both Miss Ederle and Miss Tanner rollicked, Miss Ederle waved to the passengers aboard the liner, the sight of which appeared to cheer her up “Cut out that talling girls,” called Wolfe from his small rowboat along- side at this juncture. Three hours after her start Miss Ederle took her first nourishrhent, a light draught of beef essence liquid contained in a small bladder which Wolfe handed out to her from the rowboat on the end of a stick. The experts aboard the tug thot it was a Uttle too early for her to take food but up to this point Miss Ederle had fooled atl the experts by being eight miles out from Cape Gris Nez after being only three hours in the water, the greatest dis- tance ever covered in that time by any man or woman that ever at tempted the channel swim HEALTH FOUND BY WASHINGTON YOUTH ON HIKE “Casey” Jones On Way Back Home to Resume School Studies.
